A PROMINENT MEMBER of the Tenn
perance Alliance says they are not
asking for any legislation this year if
the Legislature is going to pass a bill
for Convention to give us a new Con-
stitution. He says that our license and
other laws have been so amended and
changed by successive sessions of the
Legislature that even the lawyers
themselves cannot fully define the
meaning of the existing statutes. They
would much rather commence anew
on the basis of new Constitution.

the address are given to the national
topics of the tariff and silver coin,
which had much the appearance of a
degeneracy into a stump speech in
comparison to the State topics that legi-
timately belonged to his address.
The argument on the tariff question
is for a reduction of the duties and
taxes and on the silver question in
favor of a deprecated coin. The
points that especially brought forth ap-
.plause were those referring to- rotation
in Office and the application of Civil
Service Reform.

The firm stand taken by the Irish
tenants against evictiOns is having its
effect. Viscount Dillon, a wealthy
land owner in Ireland, after having is.
sued five hundred writs of eiectment
against his tenants, has turned suddenly
around aud consented to reduction OF
twenty per cent. in his rents, to nav
the costs of the writs he had issued and
TO relnstate the tenants he had evicted
Inc tull extent and meaning of such a
sudden change of front is only fully ex,
planned when il is said that it was
made by the pressure of the govern
ment being brought to bear upon the

occasions.

Republican success in November is condi-
toned upon thorough organization. The Sara
toga Convention made an excellent beginning.
1t placed strong and popular ticket In the
field. Il adopted an admirable platform
Now let all hands fall in line and take up the
work where the convention left it and carry
it on to completion. Let every county COM
mittee, every town committee every ward
committee, at once be placed on war footing.
The State Committee will organize on the 22d
inst. in this city and will doubtless do its
best to supplement the labors of the local
committees and effectively supervise the cam
pagn at all points.
The argument this year, as usual, is with
the Republicans. They can confidently go to
the people on their party's record i, State
affairs, whereas the Democracy can only hope
to succeed by cvading its record. But II the
argument is to be potent all the voters must
have it brought home to them. Give us a
canvass which shall leave no corner OF the
State, no crossroads, unenlightened in regard
to the political issues of the hour. Place the
good speakers on the stump from Buffalo to
BROOKLYN. Disseminate Republican news
papers and documents. Keep sharp lookout
for the subterranean devices of our friends
the enemy.
The Republicans of New-York can win this
fall if every district does its whole duty.
But there is a hard struggle before us. The
Democrats have the advantage of possession
and are under the leadership Of Governor
Hill, who will not scruple to use the extensive
patronage at his disposal for partisan ends.
On all sides one hears the assertion: F" This
is Republican year." 1t will be if we all
work without ceasing until the November
vote is polled. But not otherwise.

ELEVAIE THE TRACKS.

The people of Jersey City who arc
opposing the proposed elevation OF
the tracks of the Pennsylvania Rail
road are pursuing narrow and short
sighted policy. The improvement which the
company has planned is clearly for the per-
manent advantage of the city; so much so, in
fact, that the city might well afford to pay
tho company for undertaking it. 1t is amaz-
ing that the residents of a large town like
Jersey City should have submitted so long 10
such dangerous nuisances as grade crossings
on the numerous railroads that centre there.
No matter how carefully protected by gates
and watchmen a railroad may be- it is incvita-
bic that fatal accidents viii occur at such
crossings in thickly populated city, Either
elevated or depressed tracks are imperatively
demanded on tho score OF safety.
But now when the Pennsylvania Company
offers to raise its tracks, asking from the city
only the privilege Of closing single street
for short distance, some property Owners
who fear that they may suffer damages arc

4 NECESSARY PUNISHMENT

No incredible or strange thing has hap
pcned. as Anarchist Most ahIrms. Certain
Anarchists who caused the murder OF Chicago
policcmcn are to be hanged, after enjoying
every opportunity to defend themselves by all
the legal methods which our equal laws allow
to every person, native or foreign, loyal or
disloval, innocent or guilty. Inc course OIL
instice has been so slow and cautiously fair
that many Jealous defenders OF Tree institu-
tions have been most indignant and yet the
calm deibcration ends in unanimous decision
of tho Illinois Supreme Court confirming the
conviction and sentence. The decision OF the
court is heartily approved by nincty-nine out
OF every hundred American citizens, Tor the
people Of this country value their Government.
and distinctly want TO hang men who accept
its hospitality only to consplrc against II, ana
murder officials because they do their duty In
unfolding that Government II is not wonder
Gul that the people uphold their own Govern
ment. The wonder is that they tolerate the
presence on American soil OF such creatures
as Most or others who expect peoples gov
eminent to shield the murdercrs of It's faith
full officers.
It is the deliberate conviction of intelligent
citizens that the hanging of these criminals
is necessary in order TO impress upon the minds
of foreign born revolutiOnsts the fact that
pcople's government is not weaker, but in
finitcly stronger, than governments which
have not their origin in the will OF the gov
emcd. American citizens learned that lesson
when the greatest rebellion of history was
suppressed. There are times when mercy is
proper. in consideration of the ignorance OF
criminals and their lack OF moral responsibility
for their acts. But il is the deliberate con-
yiction OF nearly all American citizens that
this is not such case. The Anarchists who
mako war on social order here know perfectly
well that they are law-brcakcrs. They de-
ludc themselves with the notion that no set
of officers and no party will dare to enforce
the laws against them, because politicians fear
their votes. II is high time that this notion
should be dispcllcd.
Mr.. George and his friends of the Labor
party in this State take step which deserves
the appreciation OF all good citizens when they
cast out the Anarchists who seek TO turn q
labor movement into conspiracy against
social order. No party can hope for the
SURFACES of free citizens which consorts with
those who arc hostile to the self-governmcnt
OF free citizens. Men who como from abroad
with a foreign-born hatred Of all government.
and who have never learned that the govern
mcnt which the people create and control they
also love; whose aims are hostile to all social
order; who think that the defence OF citizen
in his right to his earnings and his property
is a crime against other citizens who have
less property. having spent their earnings;
need to be taught that no party whatever in
this country has the slightest sympathy with
them or federation for their destructive aims.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1887-09-16

making an absurd outcry and opposition. In
view of this it seems that the company would
be justified in carrying out its threat of remov-
ing its terminus from its present location. Tho
threat was probably made for the sake OF
bringing the recalctrant property and
the CITY authorities to terms but the company
could make the change with comparatively
little trouble. The city would be the sufferer,
not the railroad. The sensible thing Tor al
concerned would be to give the company SUD-
stantial furtherance in its good intentions
Jersey CITY will be a much pleasanter place
for business and residence when all the rali-
roads are placed on elevated structures. Inc
PENNSYLVANIA as the pioneer in this exceiich'
work deserves praise and encouragement.
